From My Perspective

The more time I spend in the chaotic world of human interactions, the more I realize how often we simply get it all wrong. What I have come to know are things so opposite what we generally see as truth. Let's see what you think.....

Some of the things I have discovered are:

---that people who choose to consistently function at the user relationship level are left with families and “friendships” that are dysfunctional, superficial, and lacking in trust and love.

---that the strongest person is the one who refuses to be pulled down to the level of behavior that includes manipulation, gossip, criticism, and put downs of others.

---that the ability to find perspective is critical to dealing with stress, pressure, chaos, bombshells, twists and turns in relationships, and general upsetting occurrences in life.....and that the person with the most personal power is the one who has this ability.

---that cleverness is not nearly as attractive as compassion or kindness.

---that the most mature person has no need to be aligned with whoever is perceived to have the most power, the most popularity, or the most attention at the moment.

---that the more we hurt, the more self-absorbed we become.

Plus

---I know now that the more we can quiet our minds and spend time in silence, the more we are able to let peace come into our lives.

---and I am now sure that love is the only real and true answer to fear.
